//MOVE THE FONT DOWN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE IMAGE
// Display headline at x location
textFont(f,50);
textAlign(BOTTOM);
text(headlines[index],x,470);
//allows the speed to be effected
// Decrement x
x = x – 3;

//THIS CODE WOULD BE USED TO MAKE IT REPEAT OVER AND OVER.
// If x is less than the negative width,
// then it is off the screen
//float w = textWidth(headlines[index]);
// if (x < -w) {
// x = width;
// index = (index + 1) % headlines.length;
}

//need to be able to set up a frame rate for the screen as well as a size. void setup() { size(400, 400); frameRate(4); smooth();

}//names assigned to each individual item. you need to be able to call upon. int pos = 0;int saveNum=0;

void draw() {exportFrame();

//background colorbackground(255);// if any button is pressed it will result in the screen going completely black in color while if not pressedscreen will be white and display objects. if(keyPressed == true) { background(0);}//screen will display white.else { background(255);

// calling upon the rectangle where it is located 90, 180 somewhat middle of the screen.pos++;rect(pos, 90, pos, 180);fill(0);if (pos > width) pos = 0;

//the ellipse will move based upon where the mouse X AND Y are located watch as it follows on the screen.ellipse(mouseX, mouseY, 60, 60);

same thing happened with this, while entering in the code the parts that should had lit up remained darkened then while trying to fit in the code, it would not produce the code needed to continue with the coding itself.

We got introduced to this the subjectivity of interaction there is many different types of interactions. As a class we were able to experience with many different types of interactions whether or not it was constructing an interaction or merely being the subject of interest for the interaction to take place, regardless of what we were doing the equation was a + b = c in most cases. We predominately worked within the fact that within interaction there can be censors in objects.

As a class we discussed what had sensors in it and I completely forgot about how many items within just a house could have the result of sensors. Take something such as a thermostat nothing we really consciously think about we set it and it does its job without the worry of an individual to continuously watch it. So does sensors essentially make our lives easier and make us lazier? Technology is advancing to the point that we no longer even need a remote to change to channel on the TV our TVs can now simply read our movements and determine what action to take without having to search the house for a remote that happens to be stuck within the couch cushion!

Does this happen to be a pro or a con. Will these advancements essentially make us dependent on technology for every day activities?

This pop up assignment was interesting it allowed me to explore a whole new way to interact with something as simple as paper. It created the equation that if you do this, that will happen while making it fun and interesting. I took a little bit of a different approach with this in the way that I made it interactive I did however struggle a little bit with coming up with a solid idea and going with it as many of my initial ideas did not pan out the way I had imagined them in my head and drawn out on paper. 😦

!Where? :: Why this structure? What made you settle on the idea you did?!

I really enjoyed the castle theme, I was discussing with a friend Game of Thrones which triggered some different ideas such as sleeping beauty, snowwhite and everything I really enjoyed as a child. I drew some different ideas in which I wanted to incorporate into my design.How? :: Directing us to the appropriate photos (see below) talk about your construction process.

I began with my prototype designing how I wanted to construct my book I think this was the most important step without a foundation I was unable to build upon my idea and lay things out. I had completely forgotten to take any photos of my final attempt of construction I do however have a picture from a friend of me clearly loving every moment of my design.Problems? Solutions? What would you do differently next time?!

Problems that I most commonly ran into was the fact that once you cut paper its really hard to fix that mistake. I got stuck with the construction of my first page, initially I wanted to include a door on the castle but that however did not work the way I intended so I instead decided on a moon. Now the process in which I had to follow to get that done was tricky to find something that was strong enough to keep the momentum of the moon without it getting stuck so it could fluidly move back and forth. I settled on using a pipe cleaner initially and that was too flimsy so I had to put something around that to support it. The only thing I could find that would remotely work would be a straw in which gives it a bit more support to the pushing and pulling motion. If I had thought about it previously I would have instead used a stronger wire or something slightly smaller. I had an idea with a mirror and again that did not pan out either as the tin foil I was intending on using was not reflective enough and would not work for the purpose it which I wanted it to serve. I would have liked to have done it but with the lack of materials handy it was difficult to pull that one off.Who? :: Discuss your intended audience.!

My intended audience would be a younger audience as this is so simple and child like I do believe if I were to put a target audience it would be ages between 3-6 years of age.

Why? :: Speak to the interactive capabilities of paper engineering generally, as well as yourbook specifically. What is our attraction to these objects?!

I couldn’t think of anything super crazy to do however I kind of switched up the interactivity that I used it is so generic to just use the push and pull and I wanted to do something a little bit different. On page two I used a wax paper in which I put over top of the text, to give the audience a chance to really explore by seeing and touching. Doing this allows the audience to read some text that I had put under the wax paper. The audience needs to move the paper around in order to make out the poem that is located beneath the paper.

The 3rd page kind of didn’t work out the way I had initially intended however I wanted to keep with the castle type theme which a big giant old clock in which allows you to move the hands on the clock is fun and kind of gave me the idea that what you do with the time is up to you.. just kind of how life plays out – what you decide to do with your time is up to you. Then I wanted to continue with the child theme including a mouse but first a little riddle with painted on foot prints to where you’ll find the little mouse hiding under the other flap, and the audience gets a little surprise when they find the little mouse hiding.
